The interdisciplinary conference "Global Trade Relations, Supply Chains and Corporate Responsibility" addresses the critical challenges and changes caused by global economic and geopolitical dynamics in international trade relations. In view of the increasing tendencies towards de-globalisation and increased regulatory intervention, the conference will examine resilience strategies such as nearshoring, reshoring or friendshoring and their capacity to protect supply chains against global risks.
Furthermore, the empirical and theoretical foundations of supply chain regulations are analysed in order to assess their effectiveness in promoting transparency and sustainability, as well as compliance with human rights standards. A central point of discussion is corporate responsibility in the context of the new supply chain laws, which require compliance with social and environmental standards.
The symposium is aimed at scientists from various disciplines, practitioners from the corporate sector and generally interested parties.
